This month we have a new winner in the Townhall/HotAir GOP Presidential Straw Poll! Congratulations to Texas Rep. Ron Paul! Paul took the victory in the April Straw Poll, gaining 3.29 percentage points from the previous month when he finished second behind former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Palin dropped 4.72 percentage points to finish this month in second. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney actually lost support but moved from fourth place to third. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich fell from third to fifth behind former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.
Thank you for voting in the April poll. For May we have removed Paul Ryan, Haley Barbour and Jim DeMint as they announced they will not be running for president. We have added former Louisiana Governor Buddy Roemer and Businessman Donald Trump. We also rearranged the order of the poll for fairness.
